Influence of ligand substitution on molybdenum catalysts with tridentate Schiff base ligands for the organic solvent-free oxidation of limonene using aqueous TBHP as oxidant

, p. 52 - 59 (2017)
The oxidation of limonene by aqueous TBHP has been analyzed in the presence of molybdenum complexes [MoO2L]2 as catalysts with five different tridentate ligands L in the absence of organic solvents (greener reaction conditions). The ligands are based on a common salicylidene amino(thio)phenolate, SA(T)P, backbone with differences in the coordination sphere (ONO for L = SAP vs. ONS for L = SATP) or in the salicyl moiety functionalization by OH groups for the ONO ligands. The process gives a regioselective endocyclic epoxidation to a kinetically controlled 1:1 mixture of the cis-LimO and trans-LimO epoxides and/or the isomeric diols ax-LimD and eq-LimD by the subsequent ring opening in the presence of water, with a product distribution that depends on the ligand, reaction time and temperature. In combination with control experiments of the cis/trans-LimO ring opening, the investigations demonstrate the catalytic action of the metal complexes in both the epoxidation and the ring opening steps, with the cis-LimO stereospecifically producing the ax-LimD product and the less reactive trans-LimO leading to a 4:3 mixture of ax-LimD and eq-LimD. The ONS system [MoO2(SATP)]2 exhibits the highest catalytic activity in both steps.

The efficient hydrolytic kinetic separation of trans/cis-(R)-(+)-limonene oxides was realized in a 1:1 mixed solvent of water and 1,4-dioxane without additional catalyst. Optically pure trans-(R)-(+)-limonene oxide was recovered in high yield (77%).

When HgCl2 was added to a diastereomeric mixture of cis- and trans-(4S)-limonene 1,2-epoxide, the Hg(II) ions stereoselectively complexed to the cis epoxide, enabling ring opening by water. The resulting mercuric salt could be demetalated by treatment with NaBH4, giving a mixture of diastereomeric (1S,2S,4S)- and (1R,2R,4S)-diols. The remaining trans-(4S)-epoxide was obtained in >98% d.e. and 40% yield. For reactions on a larger scale, the most convenient reaction system was Hg(OAc)2 in 50% acetone/tris-HCl buffer pH 7.0. The reaction rate was affected by the pH, with pH 6-8 as optimum.

In order to produce versatile and potentially functional terpene-based compounds, a (R)-limonene-derived diol and its corresponding five-membered cyclic carbonate were prepared. The diol (cyclic carbonate) comprises four diastereomers based on the stereochemical configuration of the diol (and cyclic carbonate) moiety. By choosing the appropriate starting compounds (trans- and cis-limonene oxide) and conditions, the desired diastereomers were synthesised in moderate to high yields with, in most cases, high stereoselectivity. Comparison of the NMR data of the obtained diols and carbonates revealed that the four different diastereomers of each compound could be distinguished by reference to their characteristic signals.

The hybrid polyoxometalate (POM) salt (Hptz)4[SiMo12O40]?nH2O (1) (ptz = 5-(2-pyridyl)tetrazole) has been prepared, characterized by X-ray crystallography, and examined as a catalyst for the epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene (Cy) and bio-derived olefins, namely dl-limonene (Lim; a naturally occurring monoterpene found in the rinds of citrus fruits), methyl oleate and methyl linoleate (fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) obtained by transesterification of vegetable oils). The crystal structure of 1 consists of α-Keggin-type heteropolyanions, [SiMo12O40]4-, surrounded by space-filling and charge-balancing 2-(tetrazol-5-yl)pyridinium (Hptz+) cations, as well as by a large number of water molecules of crystallization (n = 9). The water molecules mediate an extensive three-dimensional (3D) hydrogen-bonding network involving the inorganic anions and organic cations. For the epoxidation of the model substrate Cy in a nonaqueous system (tert-butylhydroperoxide as oxidant), the catalytic performance of 1 (100% epoxide yield at 24 h, 70 °C) was superior to that of the tetrabutylammonium salt (Bu4N)4[SiMo12O40] (2) (63% epoxide yield at 24 h), illustrating the role of the counterion Hptz+ in enhancing catalytic activity. The hybrid salt 1 was effective for the epoxidation of Lim (69%/85% conversion at 6 h/24 h) and the FAMEs (87–88%/100% conversion at 6 h/24 h), leading to useful bio-based products (epoxides, diepoxides and diol products).

Limonene oxidation over Cu-nanostructured mesoporous materials was studied. Three solids with different copper content were synthesized employing the template-ion exchange method, and physically-chemically analyzed by a multi-technical characterization. The performance of the molecular sieves as catalysts in the liquid phase oxyfunctionalization of limonene, employing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or t-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidants was evaluated. All synthesized Cu-MCM materials were active in the reaction. The obtained results showed that the used oxidant had an important influence on the products distribution under the employed conditions. With H2O2, compounds of high added value such as limonene oxide, carveol and carvone were mainly obtained. Meanwhile, with TBHP, limonene hydroperoxide turned out to be the major product. Finally, a reaction mechanism was proposed for each oxidant.

Neat {[VO(sal2bz)]2; [Fe(sal2bz)(H2O)2]2·2H2O} and zeolite-Y immobilized {[VO(sal2bz)]2-Y; [Fe(sal2bz)(H2O)2]2-Y} binuclear complexes have been prepared and characterized by spectroscopic techniques (IR, UV–vis), elemental analyses (CHN, ICP-OES), thermal study (TGA), scanning electron micrograph (SEM), adsorption study (BET)and X-ray diffraction (XRD)patterns. Neat (homogeneous)and immobilized (heterogeneous)complexes were employed as catalysts in the oxidation of olefins, namely, cyclohexene, limonene and α-pinene in the presence of 30% hydrogen peroxide. 100% conversion of cyclohexene and α-pinene was obtained while limonene was oxidized up to 90%. Homogeneous catalysts showed highly selective result as neat [VO(sal2bz)]2 complex has provided 87% cyclohexane-1,2-diol and neat [Fe(sal2bz)(H2O)2]2·2H2O complex has provided 79% verbenone in oxidation of cyclohexene and α-pinene, respectively. We have observed that due to steric hindrance, formation of olefinic oxidation products increases on moving from α-pinene to limonene and limonene to cyclohexene. Additionally. recovered heterogeneous catalysts showed intact results up to two consecutive runs. Probable catalytic mechanism has been proposed for oxidation of cyclohexene.
